I met with an accident while performing for a show in Colombo. I couldn’t see because of artificial fog that was on the sets; I tripped and hurt my head. I had to undergo surgery, and shave my head because of the stitches.
I have had PTSD since I was in a car accident when I was 16.
I didn’t get to the Senate by accident.
They were very generous with me. Everybody was willing to talk about their particular accident, what they had to deal with and how they got back in touch with their competitors’ spirit.
For a celebrity with image challenges, kids can be game-changers. It’s no accident that Clay Aiken came out of the closet cuddling his newborn.
When I had an accident in 2006, no one believed that I will return to the ground, but I did.
More things in politics happen by accident or exhaustion than happen by conspiracy.
My very best friend died in a car accident when I was 16 years old. That was the hardest blow emotionally that I have ever had to endure. Suddenly, you realize tomorrow might not come. Now I live by the motto, ‘Today is what I have.’
I actually came out of drama school and went into two years of working in film and television, which was a happy accident.
I think one game we played the Oakland Raiders and Jack Tatum and I had an accident on the one-yard line. The only thing that Jack Tatum didn’t do was wrap me up so I backed into the endzone backwards.
Alzheimer’s disease is never an ‘accident’ in a marriage. It falls under the purview of God’s sovereignty. In the case of someone with Alzheimer’s, this means God’s unconditional and sacrificial love has an opportunity to be even more gloriously displayed in a life together.
I did not develop my ear. I discovered I had an ear, and it was an accident.
I am an American, not by accident of birth but by choice. I voted with my feet and became an American because I love this country and think it is exceptional.
There were times after the accident when I felt very lonely – burns survivors can feel terrible isolation. I wanted to create something that connects us all together, so that was the idea behind the Katie Piper Foundation.
Either I’m going to be like an MGM starlet – get married five times, it will be a bit of a laugh – or I will get pregnant, by accident, with someone I barely know. We’ll get through it. They’ll be a great co-parent. We definitely won’t end up together.
Before my accident I had to fund my racing through finding sponsors myself so I am use to it. Obviously at that point I was 15 or 16, knocking on business’s doors going ‘I am a racing driver, a British champion and I want to be in Formula 1, will you give me an amount so I represent your brand’.
I could rap really good on accident. I talk tight and it just sounded… I don’t know. It’s just such a big genre for me. At the end of the day, rap is the language of the world.

I was in a mountain biking accident and broke my sternum about three months before my unit was supposed to deploy to Iraq, and it’s such a close-knit community that the idea of not getting to go is hugely jarring, so I tried to get put back in training and wound up injuring it worse.
Human beings are social creatures – not occasionally or by accident but always. Sociability is one of our lives as both cause and effect.
Actually the hardest films to make are comedies. In normal life, funny things happen by accident; to re-create those by design in a film takes real technique.
None of the modes by which a magistrate is appointed, popular election, the accident of the lot, or the accident of birth, affords, as far as we can perceive, much security for his being wiser than any of his neighbours.
I was sure after the accident when in hospital in Hungary that I was not in the position not to lose any races.
Our trademark asymmetrical hairstyle came about by accident. My sister was trying to get her beautician’s licence, and I was her guinea pig. She permed my hair and didn’t wash out one of the sides properly, so the whole right side of my hair was eaten out. After she washed it, I was half bald.
